Jenkins had an indirect path to Penn State and first started her education at West Chester University. She then transferred to Penn State Lehigh Valley and later changed campuses to University Park. The first-generation college student distinguished herself academically and socially, earning awards for her consistently high GPA, becoming a Schreyer Scholar and participating in the BioMed Amgen Scholars Program at Yale University. Her contributions to improving the atmosphere of diversity and inclusion at Penn State include helping to implement anti-racist training into orientation programming for incoming honors students.
Penn State President Eric Barron praised Jenkins for both her academic achievements and contributions to campus culture.
